Do you have short and scanty eyelashes and you want to make them longer? Nothing can help you achieve that other than the fiber mascaras. This article will let you know what are, how to apply them, some of the best fiber mascara brands, risks and a lot more.
What is Fiber Mascara?
Fiber mascara is a type that has tiny or micro-fibers (thread like fibers) made from rayon, silk or nylon, which attach to your eyelashes to make them look much longer and much fuller. They have a tendency of clinging to the eyelashes and stick together because any type is sticky. They are one of the best options for people who would love to have longer lashes but they do not want to put on fake mascaras since the their results could be comparable.
What Are Their Benefits
If you have opted for fibre mascara, you should know that they have a number of benefits, which include some we have already mentioned. To summarize, here are the benefits of fiber mascara:
- They will help in achieve longer and fuller eyelashes.
- You do not need to use glue as in the case of false eyelashes, which is both tedious and time consuming. There is also the risk of getting glue to your real eyelashes when you use false eyelashes, which could have many detrimental effects.
- Some brands have conditionings and nourishments, which can help, promote the health of your natural eyelashes.
The prices at which you are going to buy fibre mascaras will vary depending on the specific brands you go for. However, they are generally more expensive than the traditional mascaras because some fiber has been included and this makes them more functional. They are however much cheaper than false or fake eyelashes.

just learned some make up tricks from some girl friends two of us novice makeup geeks tried younique fiberlash today and were extremely pleased with how long the lashes look. Have had it on about z4 hours and it looks great!!!!!!!!!!!!
I actually just started using Younique 3D Mascara, and I love it. However, I’m all about finding stuff cheaper, and found out that this product is made in China just like freaking everything else is, so I have a much cheaper alternative on the way, Love Alpha…Younique is approx. $30 and Love Alpha purchased on ebay for less than $10.
I’ll have to check back in to let you know if I feel the products are comaparable. The secret to using the mascara is to use THIN LAYERS and WORK QUICKLY. I absolutely love the stuff, and one trick u can do..once finished applying (ONE EYE AT A TIME..that took some getting used to doing versus going back and fourth)..the cool TRICK is to set your blowdryer on COLD or use COLD SHOT, after eye is completed put your blow dryer pushed directly up against cheek directly underneath your eye..and it blow drys the eyelashes upwards even further. It WORKS!! ALSO have a eyelash brush/comb in case of applying to thick or just want to separate. THE FIBERS DO NOT SHED IF YOU ARE COMPLETELY APPLYING THE MASCARA OVER TOP THE FIBERS. No worries, if u have a bit of trouble at first, u will soon become a pro like myself. I practiced at home 2 or 3 times when I wasn’t going anywhere…and NOPE, I am NOT a rep. Just a client…and I know a rep wouldn’t have Love Alpha on the way…LMAO!!
Hope this post helps many. ANOTHER little trick you can DO with ANY mascara PRIOR to applying mascara to eye…use a METAL eyelash curler ONLY for this. Use a lighter and lightly and indirectly quickly, in a to and fro motion, heat the METAL eyelash curler…use finger to test the metal for appropriate temperature..when WARM NOT HOT, proceed to curl your lashes and see the difference. It’s like a curling iron for your lashes (only on NAKED LASHES and DO NOT OVER HEAT OR USE WITHOUT FIRST TESTING the temperature). Happy Lashes..BOO-YAH Y’all!!!
Is there anyone on this site besides younique presenters. I just need an honest evaluation. No one product can be the best for everyone and no one have complaints. It is actually turning g me off from the product because I can not get an honest evaluation from anyone.
Hi, I wrote an honest evaluation. See below. I swear by Blinc/Kiss me (tube your lashes) and Cherry Blooms fibre mascara. Younique was one of the worst mascaras I have ever tried and I have tried them all…in every price range.
I have spent more money than you can shake a stick at on mascaras! Falsies are just unnatural for me…and eyelash inserts are not good for my eyes. I found Younique 3D and just love it! Fibers stay on…does not cause me problems with eye irritation/contact lenses, etc. Water resistant, but not water proof…so cleans off easily. $29.00….it’s the best bang for my buck!! http://www.alwaysalluring.com
I’ve tried cherry bloom massive reaction but with Younique it’s the only mascara I can wear day in day out and even sleep in that I don’t get a reaction from! Wish it had been around years ago when I was dancing full time would have saved my eyes a lot of pain.
I do my lashes and then use a hair dryer, never had flaking or fibers come off. I’ve thrown away all other mascara for life!
Excellent, Kathryn….I sell this mascara and have found it to be exactly as you just wrote…it’s the best!!
Hi Kathryn, Just wondering what you think the ingredient in Cherry Blooms that caused such a reaction. It doesnt contain Propylene glycol and a million other ingredients like Younique… Ive been using Cherry Blooms for years and found it lightweight and nourishing for my eyelashes expesically the beeswax 🙂
I ordered Love Alpha, and it is amazing. It really makes my eylashes longer and thicker. I figured, that if I apply the fibers to the upper end of my lashes, it won’t get clumpsy and stays on longer. It lasts quite a long time, but you shouldn’t rub your eyes! 🙂
I tried this. Two tubes – one that included fibers. I applied it exactly as instructed, & tried every way suggested on website. It was a mess. Fibers fell into my eyes all day, as well as onto my face which left black smudges. The fibers hurt my eyes. Then they would water & it would smudge worse. Eye doctor advised not to use. Can cause eye infections & nor good at all with contacts. Lashes look good, but only for a little while because once fibers begin falling the nightmare begins.
I recently bought Cherry Blooms fibre lash mascara and it’s seriously good. I was surprised at how long it made my lashes look and I’ve been receiving so many compliments since I bought it. Cherry Blooms is a must try.
The one I have found (after trying all those on the list and some) is Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lashes from Younique Products! It is natural and chemical free. Plus, t comes in two tubes. One is the transplanting gel and the other is dry fibers. They are tiny tea tree fibers! You apply the Gel, apply the fibers and seal with the gel! You can order them for only 29.00 and the set lasts 8-10 weeks! If anyone would lke to do a review on them, contact me! http://www.christenmorgan.com
I don’t know if you are still offering for somebody to do a review on your Younique lashes or not, but I would love to try them and review them for you. Please let me know if you are still offering the trial. =) Thanks!
I love the look I get with Younique’s 3-d fiber mascara. I fell in love the first time I tried them. I immediately registered with the company to become a presenter because I knew I had my hands on an amazing product.

I would love to have an honest review of 3D Fiber Mascara!
I found that the 3d fiber lashes may have some chemicals in the gel (not fibers which is all natural), which could be eye irritants. Please let me know.
I have somewhat sensitive eyes and wear contacts…have been using Younique 3D fiber lash mascara for about 2 months now…no issues at all and I love the look! Truly the best that I’ve found…and I used to represent a slew of cosmetic lines…!
Hi Christen, Its not all chemical free has propylene glycol in it. Yes green tea fibres which is great but the mascara isnt all natural…
I found the best brand of Fiber Mascara to be an Australian brand called Cherry Blooms! The fibers are black and stay on all day! The mascara itself has a high grade beeswax that’s actually nourishing for your lashes and will help them grow on their own. I wear this product everyday and have compared against brands listed above and nothing compares! its only $13 shipping overseas too but well worth the extra money 🙂 http://www.cherryblooms.com.au
I actually think that $13 is not cheap. Can you tell me if you have tried Modelco, Sanithea and Love alpha please to compare? thanks
cherry blooms 70.00 not 13.00
She said shipping was $13, not the actual cost of the product.
